Jessica Ekomane

With Antechamber, the Berlin-based sound artist and computer musician Jessica Ekomane presents a new sound installation in the attic of KW.

The newly commissioned work continues Ekomane’s inquiry into how sound can act as a transformative force and intertwines her research into African mathematical knowledge systems with electronic compositional practices.

Her compositions emphasize the cathartic and physical effects of sound created through the interplay of rhythmic patterns, melody, noise, and psychoacoustics. The multichannel sound installation transforms the attic into a site for embodied listening, offering a space for reflection on modes of knowledge, social listening habits, and their cultural imprint.
